SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps users identify the most appropriate Azure role for an identity based on required permissions, ensuring the principle of least privilege is applied.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Role Identification: Determines the built-in Azure role that best matches specified permissions.
  • Custom Role Generation: Creates a custom role definition if no suitable built-in role exists.
  • Assignment Guidance: Provides CLI commands for role assignment and Bicep code snippets for infrastructure as code.
  • Use Case: A security administrator needs to grant a new service principal read-only access to a specific storage account. This Skill will identify the 'Storage Blob Data Reader' role or generate a custom role if necessary, and provide the Azure CLI command to assign it.
